Which unit of measure would scientists use to measure the thickness of a rock layer created as a result of volcanic activity?

A scientist would use a unit of length appropriate for the magnitude of what he or she is measuring. In this case, since rock is built up very slowly, they would probably use millimetres or centimetres. In some cases they may use meters.

Scientists measure the thickness of rock layers from volcanic activity using units of length such as millimeters (mm), centimeters (cm), or meters (m). The choice of units depends on the thickness being measured, with smaller layers typically being recorded in mm or cm and thicker layers in m. Accurate measurements are crucial for understanding geological processes.
